Good Evening,

Just in from our first team dinner. Martin (from Germany) and team leader, Paul Rose (from the UK), arrived late this afternoon. Upon easy conversation, Martin and I discovered we both enjoy sea kayaking as well as other modes of exploring the backcountry. Paul’s enthusiasm is infectious and we’re all excited to fly to Greenland in the morning.

It will be a two hour flight to Constable Point with Sunday being a staging and shakedown day. The first part of the trip is a huge unknown and much will depend on snow conditions.

I am eager to begin and built the solid and efficient team we will need to accomplish our goals. Wish us luck, safety, and good traveling conditions/weather. As we say in Newfoundland, “it’s going to be a time!”
